Quote

Squeezing yourself to ooze out the last ounce of sex allure is terribly hard. I'd like to do roles like Julie in Bury the Dead, Gretchen in Faust and Teresa in Cradle Song.

More quotes by Marilyn Monroe

Image
There was my name up in lights. I said, 'God, somebody's made a mistake.' But there it was, in lights. And I sat there and said, 'Remember, you're not a star.' Yet there it was up in lights.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I think every human being knows how to hate. Because if they didn't know how to hate how to hate they wouldn't know how to love.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I have too many fantasies to be a housewife. I guess I am a fantasy.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I think that sexuality is only attractive when it's natural and spontaneous.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I remember when I was in high school I didn't have a new dress for each special occasion. The girls would bring the fact to my attention, not always too delicately. The boys, however, never bothered with the subject. They were my friends, not because of the size of my wardrobe but because they liked me.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
There is a need for aloneness, which I don't think most people realise for an actor. It's almost having certain kinds of secrets for yourself that you'll let the whole world in on only for a moment, when you're acting. But everybody is always tugging at you. They'd all like sort of a chunk of you.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I could never pretend something I didn't feel. I could never make love if I didn't love, and if I loved I could no more hide the fact than change the color of my eyes.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
Ever since I became a movie star,I've been really weird.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I'm sin, but I'm not the devil.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I've never liked the name Marilyn. I've often wished that I had held out that day for Jean Monroe. But I guess it's too late to do anything about it now.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am pretty, but not beautiful. I have friends, but I am not the peacemaker.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
Fame is like caviar, you know - it's good to have caviar but not when you have it at every meal.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I didn't mind being thought of as dumb. I knew I wasn't.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
Never regret anything because at one time it was exactly what you wanted.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
Just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

A man has a tendency to accept you the way you are, while most women immediately start to pick flaws and want to change you.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
I am trying to find myself. Sometimes that's not easy.
Marilyn Monroe
Image
A strong man doesn't have to be dominant toward a woman. He doesn't match his strength against a woman weak with love for him. He matches it against the world.
